ember-webpack-resolver

An Ember.js resolver heavily inspired by https://github.com/stefanpenner/ember-jj-abrams-resolver but mainly for use with webpack.

Install

npm install ember-webpack-resolver --save-dev

Usage

This resolver is intended to resolve modules with a folder structure like such:

| - app/
| --- components/
| --- controllers/
| --- models/
| --- routes/
| --- templates/
| --- views/
| --- app.js
| --- router.js
| - node_modules/
| --- some-widget-ember-component
| ----- index.js
| ----- index.hbs
| - bower_components/
| --- some-other-ember-component
| ----- index.js
| ----- index.hbs

A very simple config will resolve just your local modules:

var App = Ember.Application.create({
  Resolver: require('ember-webpack-resolver?' + __dirname)()
});

If you're using a file extension other than .js, supply the lookup extensions such use with coffeescript:

var App = Ember.Application.create({
  Resolver: require('ember-webpack-resolver?' + __dirname)({
    extensions: ['.coffee', '.hbs']
  })
});

Custom Lookup Patterns

If you have a custom module type that you need to resolve, use the lookupPatterns option. It takes an array of functions with each function receiving a parsedName argument. The function optionally returns a moduleName value based on some criteria.

var reactModuleFilter = function(parsedName) {
  if (parsedName.type === 'react') {
    return './react/' + parsedName.fullNameWithoutType
  }
}

var App = Ember.Application.create({
  Resolver: require('ember-webpack-resolver?' + __dirname)({
    extensions: ['.coffee', '.hbs'],
    lookupPatterns: [reactModuleFilter]
  })
});

Resolving Components

If you want to also resolve modules within vendor folders, a bit more configuration is required:

var App = Ember.Application.create({
  Resolver: require('ember-webpack-resolver?' + __dirname)({
    components: {
      'some-widget': require('some-widget-ember-component'),
      'other-widget': require('some-other-ember-component')
    }
  })
});

Then it will resolve to the specified module when inserted into your template:

<h1>{{some-widget value="Hooray!"}}</h1>
<p>{{#other-widget}}Stuff{{/other-widget}}</p>

To resolve modules within the bower_components folder, be sure to add the folder to your webpack config:

module.exports = {
  // ...
  resolve: {
    moduleDirectories: ["node_modules", "bower_components"]
  }
};
